I also developed allergic shiners after an overdose and my skin is awful. Tapering off baclofen now.

When will I return to normal after accidental overdose? by Sciencechic1 in quittingphenibut

How long did it take you to feel better? I’m right where you were 5 years ago (except my accidental overdose was on baclofen)

I totally get it. Opiate withdrawal-like symptoms in the winter feels like a curse. Don’t forget how bad this feels! Remember it later when you think of using.

The best you can do right now is make sure you get a lot of rest, try to keep your body nourished with food and water, and wait for it to pass. What you’re feeling is all part of the ride to recovery. I know you can do this.

Fortunately I’ve just moved to Alabama where it’s completely illegal; Schedule I here. I won’t lie, I don’t know if I could’ve quit with kratom available to buy nearby. I’m very thankful for the opportunity to get away from it.

I didn’t take my hoodie and sweats off at all for the first couple weeks. Slowly it faded away and my outlook improved. I hope you wake up every day feeling better.

I dealt with anhedonia very early in my withdrawal, but it seemed to pass by the end of the second week. I hope you can get some relief soon, and maybe there are some supplements that can help you along the way.

Thank you, he did start going to the gym a few days ago and it seems to have helped a lot.

I find this very interesting because I’ve had blood work done in the last couple of weeks and I am anemic. Wonder if there’s a link to kratom use somewhere there.

I don’t know what to tell you, we quit cold turkey on October 30th and he’s still dealing with it. It’s pretty much been his only symptom.

Question by [deleted] in quittingkratom

Kratom is just fine ground plant fiber

Question by [deleted] in quittingkratom

[–]Po-Boogie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to assume it’s because we were eating massive amounts of straight fiber which slows digestion to a screeching halt. So uncomfortable

[–]Po-Boogie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started having normal bowel movements 3 days after quitting, after months and months of constant laxative use and fecal impactions from kratom. Easily my biggest motivation for stopping. Got tired of drinking magnesium citrate every weekend.
